Week 6 brings the first four-team bye on the schedule as fantasy owners adjust to the absence of the Raiders, Chargers (and red-hot rookie quarterback Justin Herbert), Saints, and Seahawks. That means streaming options and overall depth come into play, making this unofficially the first week where how well an owner drafted comes into play.
